“Saving-Time”
A YouTube first. Today we service an unobtainable Buren Incastar. We’ll take a look at what makes this very rare vintage watch so special, as well as discuss the history of the Buren watch company. On a personal note, this is by far my favourite vintage watch and one of my favourite watch…

The watch came out great! That handmade strap is beautiful!
Hi sir i found one watch from my grandfather s drawer would you like to restore it?
Its really interesting watching you pull the watch apart, at which point I am thinking thats the end of that. However seeing it run again is fantastic. you have a wonderful skill.
I did a quick search and found a bunch of Incastar watches immediately lol
I'm late to the party this time, but want to thank you for yet another 40 min that flies away like 5. I totally agree with you decision to cut away some of the oiling parts, but for a newbie like me, I would had enjoyed a little about how the Cartier clasp work with the bands without the use of any holes. That seems like some advanced magic to me. ๐
Pity about the strap. Excellent work.
Just found your channel Mate, great restoration, and that is a beautiful Watch!
What would be the reason for having minute indices on the movement itself? Adjusting in the pre-timegrapher days (without dial installed)? I've seen it on a couple movements now.
what a beautiful looking movement, dial and the hands look so nice. man what a beauty.
That was fascinating to watch.
I know it's a bit of a hassle but if you ever consider adding the '' natural '' sound of your work on the watch and strap, I think it would be a great addition.
I wanna practice some craftmanship now ๐
Bravo! You are unbelievably talented sir! Not only a great job with the watch restoration, but the fact you make such an amazing band as well is just too cool. Also, your filming and editing is top notch! Incredibly slick, and looks jaw-droppingly good. May I ask what cameras and lenses you're using? Anyway, thanks for the terrific video, and can't wait to see more content from your channel, cheers! ๐ป
Google I have to do a YouTube short on just how to fasten that clasp it's very interesting I've never seen one
It's as beautiful as your egoโค
Considering most high end Buren sell for $5k plus it'd be worth many thousands more easily.
Yes get a gold case for this watch!!!!
Love your multiscreen visuals . Wonderful presentation.
Good restoration. Nice timepiece.
Very nice watch mate
It's a very beautiful movement even for simplicity
This movement screams quality. The lack of markings, typically seen from past watchmakers, would hint to the quality and trouble free life it seems to have had. A great find.
I truly enjoy the strap making. Lizard or ostrich would also be nice in blue IMO. I agree that a gold case and a milled case ring would make this an heirloom piece. Thanks for sharing.
I hope somebody offers you millions of dollars for that would be hilarious
I am happy you found a treasure! Recently I had the same luck after buying a lot of 60 watches online for US$60. Ten of the pieces were non-working gems, rare and expensive! The seller had no idea what they were selling. Now I have a year's worth of restoring and enjoyment to add to my collection! The gold alone is worth $750!
EXCELENTE SERVIรO ๐๐ ๐ง๐ท
Beautiful watch! And a great use for a snake. One of our local copper heads would look great on my wrist. I just need to learn how to tan snake skin!
I love the blue David, really nice watch. You really never know what youโre gonna come acrossโฆthis reminds me of my Roamer & a Minerva which are both nice looking but fairly unassuming. Then you open them & they just explode with beauty & are, as you mentioned, an absolute pleasure to work on. Thanks again
Excellent video David! I totally understand why you are taken with Buren. This is one unique watch. Brilliant!!
Fantastic video, loved seeing the whole process!
I agree find a gold case movement like that deserves to shine great video
Magnificent watch!!! Magnificent video!!! Perhaps in the future you could make one describing how to adjust the Inscastar, it would be very insightful.
Nice work and nice watch. I like the case. The band is great, as always. I'm not a fan of the clasp.
Should have made a black one….Just kidding that strap was amazing. I was getting into watch repair but after watching a lot of your videos of late it's making me more interested in learning strap making as well. Do you have any methods to breaking in new straps or with the ones you make break in is not much of an issue? I have found with some types of straps I buy eg sailcloth and rubber types that are stiff and take a bit to break in that using hot water with the straps in a curved glass and then into cold works a treat in shaping and making break in easy. Still with fancy leather straps im sure there is safer ways to do this.
New sub from Manchester, loving your video's ๐๐
Well done! I like it๐ค
Real happy to see the growth on the channel, mate! You deserve it.
Thank you for sharing this great video on a spectacular watch: ๐๐๐!
Great video, nothing wrong with a blue strap. I have a Seiko 7025 8120 with a dark blue leather strap. Looks fantastic with the Seiko blue dial. Yours strap is another level.
Absolute jewel of a watch and what a find . It definitely went to the right owner someone who would share a good look into a beautiful piece of timekeeping history. Now I would be lying if I said that I was not jealous of your procurement of such a watch but so is life you can't find every watch up for sale and if you can you are a better man than me. Thank you for sharing this beautiful watch and like I said it went to the right owner someone who will love it for what it is and cherish it and appreciate it's rarity and not resale it to the man with the fattest billfold. The wealthy already have enough stuff it's about time that the rest of us get a piece . Brilliant video and brilliant find and what a bit of luck . If you have a bit more luck and find out more history about this movement please share . I'm going on a search right now to try and find something about it . Absolutely awesome video I love seeing rare items like this.
Fabulous video my friend and a fascinating movement. ๐
Fantabulous restoration of a superb vintage watch. Thumbs up.
Yeah MrsST!
